SakashiroDays ago I was in Deciat, and people were doing the usual trash talk in system chat about gankers, PvP, ship builds etc., and someone was talking about skill, so I said, skill in ED is 20% piloting and 80% outfitting. Woah, they didn't like to hear that at all, lol.
Yup, sounds like Deciat.

From what I gathered, in Robigo system you can do either outpost (Robigo Mines) or orbis starport (Hauser's Reach) missions that are the same, first one being outpost, only M landing pad, but second one having security, so you might get scanned and some of missions involve criminals, who appear in this game to be also sight seeing folks.
(who are we to judge
)I am thinking to setup 2 ships, one being Python as planned, but also to get something bigger just if I opt to do Hosuer's Reach missions. Wondering what others who did those missions did.
Just got bored doing mining with broken APWA, and wanting to get rest of those shinny things on inara, like our friend Episparh.

This is what I use for Sirius Atmospherics missions.

Also, does release of heat sink stops scan when entering / leaving space station?

Robigo's Mines missions.
Ok, this was clarified already. If you want to do Robigo's Mines - python.
If you want to do passenger missions with Anaconda from Robigo System you are left with just Hauser's Reach.
The anaconda should be able to jump 60ly (the exact distance is 59.03ly) to do the trip in one jump and then fill all rest with cabins. I am not really bored to try and make such build and if Imy memories serves me well Lambast Mercy have such a build
But then shieldless Python with 30ly jump will be more effective from Robigo's Mine.
I strongly suggest you to abuse Supercruise Assist to reduce travel times by aligning with target in last possible moment for safe disengage as Hauser's reach is very close to a gas giant.

SuperFrogXThat seems nice boat... Instead of cell you could do another cabin, or you don't get enough missions for all cabins?
Also, does release of heat sink stops scan when entering / leaving space station?
The Slot the Cell is in is a military slot. Cannot put a cabin there.
Heat sinks will interrupt scans yes, but you can't deploy them if the autodock is engaged
Edit: also, the parser messed up. There's another econ passenger bay in the 4 slot where the SC assist is, shuffle down one

Similar build, but optimized more for multi-stop VIP missions than for Sirius Atmospherics.
I use heat sinks and silent running if I'm concerned about security scans. Of course, this requires you to
Edit:

I did not know that ... glad I never tried.

BurstarIgneel Prime While correct there is one problem with that. The difference between rl and a video game. We play games for entertainment not to prove ourselves as best tactician or whatnot else. Even EVE players understand that concept and they're known for overdoing those kinda things. It's like a sport not a real war that's why fair fights are something that people bother with.
Actually, no. The world of Elite is a combination of Simulator and MMORPG. The reasons we play it are consequently diverse. Some 'DO play it to be the best tactician or whatnot else'. Frankly, joining Open by default means to some extent you want to play that aspect of the game and getting angry at the Gankers for not fighting fair just seems like ire at being outplayed. Don't get me wrong, it's very understandable. I hate it too, but, I do so while admitting to myself that it's my own fault when I have to pay for rebuy regardless of the circumstances.
If people wanted to just play Elite for entertaining space combat that is fair they can easily join CQC. That is what it's there for, but few do precisely because of how little the stakes are, and more notably, how predictable it is.
Nicely put o7

Vinh KruczekDoes anyone experience issues with ship names on Xbox? Instead of the names we all see is *** ****** ***** towards each other and 100% we are sure that our ship names aren't anything vulgar or trademarked. Moreover, I noticed the same issue with Fleet Carriers.
There are no issues while importing the names onto INARA.
I tried to name a ship of mine something, and a particular three-letter substring in one of the words was deemed offensive and I could not use it. Several of my ships end up with asterisks in some scenarios but not others. Which only tells me this part of Elite was coded by an intern. At least I hope that having "worked as a real-world, no really, game development company" looks good on a resume.
